[http://medmapper.sourceforge.net/introduction.jpg] ---- '''URL:''' http://medmapper.sourceforge.net ---- '''MedMapper''' is a decision support tool for physicians. It uses a tree like algorithm decision making methodology that is common in the medical field. The unique things about it are: * It generates a "note" for documentation in the patient's medical record. This is usually a separate process for the physician. MedMapper combines decision making and documentation into one step. * The algorithms or Maps can be edited by the user in a point and click environment and it requires no programming knowlege. The edited maps store their state and any changes the user makes for the next session. * Can be uses as a StarKit or StarPack. It also works in the Tcl Plugin and uses some modified Tcl plugin policies to do things such as sending email reports of it's output or exporting the ouptut to an XML database via a cgi script on a web server. This data can then be used for research purposes to extract information on populations of patients. ---- [Alex Caldwell] M.D. --- [category medicine] [category business]
